I am so sorry.

I know that for a Charley Horse, a bar of soap under the sheets helps. Don’t know why but a pharmacist told my friend’s dad to do it.

Also, before bedtime, have him vigorously wiggle his toes for several minutes. See if that does it.

But definitely try the bar of soap.

This is an interesting link. I read all the replies all the way to the bottom. While a vast majority say the soap trick does work, the last reply say she came up with the idea as a prank years ago. Wonder what the truth is? I have leg cramps occasionally I think I will try the bar of soap under the sheets.

Thanks, love the idea of wiggling the toes-—I’ll get him to try that also.
